•
When making a cut use steady, even pressure. Never
force cuts.
•
Do not cut warped or wet lumber.
•
Always hold your saw firmly with both hands and keep
your body in a balanced position so as to resist the
forces of kickback should it occur.
When using your saw, always stay alert and exercise
control. Do not remove your saw from workpiece
while the blade is moving.
DEPTH
OF CUT ADJUSTMENT
Always keep correct blade depth setting. The correct
blade depth setting for all cuts should not exceed 1/4 inch
below the material to be cut. More blade depth will
increase the chance of kickback and cause the cut to be
rough. One blade tooth below the material to be cut works
best for most efficient cutting action.
